Branch And Cut Architecture

This is a long-term effort to create a generic, modular architecture for branch and cut solvers. The overarching goal is to rethink the architectures of the MIP solvers ​Cbc, ​SYMPHONY, and ​BLIS in the interest of making them easier to maintain in a distributed fashion and to avoid parallel development of identical functionality.

At the moment, we are focusing mainly on a better understand and a reengineering of Cbc. Participants in this effort are:

Dan Fylstra (Frontline)

Lou Hafer (SFU)

Bill Hart (Sandia)

Bjarni Kristjannson (Maximal)

Cindy Phillips (Sandia)

Ted Ralphs (Lehigh)

Matthew Saltzman (Clemson)

Edwin Straver (Frontline)

Jean-Paul Watson (Sandia)
